After going through the forest at Clint's Tree Farm on an old hay wagon pulled by two bea utiful black Percheron horses, a new understanding is felt. From the towering grand fir to the delicate yellow buttercups were some of the things enjoyed by a group of 40 children and three adults who traveled down the trails and across the river last Wednes day. This was one of two groups taken . out on hayrides, with the proceeds of nearly $90 turned over to the American Cancer Society. During the trips, the children were told the history of the farm , the tress and the plants, the wood duck that dive- bombed the hawk because he was setting on the tree her nest was in, and the Bald Eagle who seemed to listen. Riding the haywagon, listening to the stories, running down the path to see where the old mare, “Queen ie," had all her foals. Then, to have a wiener roast and skipping rocks across the creek, ended the day for the groups of tired kids Reed >x«x»x»x»x«x*: VHS BAND, under direction at Ward Nelson, pro vided music for the commencement exercices Fri- One of the first training programs offered at the Lower Columbia Cen ter is the landscaping of the church grounds.
